The purpose of this session is to explore how individuals in sport professions are affected by sexual harassment. Over the past few years, we have learned and researched the realities of sexual harassment by coaches and doctors, but there has been less research and media attention on the topic of sexual harassment within other sport professions. Are we overlooking the experiences of individuals in such fields as athletic training, sport performance, and marketing (just to name a few)? The oppression of females in sport through sexual harassment also serves to reduce the number of women in the field. Papers exploring any of these areas of sexual harassment are welcome.
